How to wear a bright summer blazer to work

The blanched skies of summer call for a timeless uniform. Ditch the kitsch for a classic blazer—always a smart investment, and never more so than during the most unpredictable months when the sky frequently clouds over. Pair with a crisp oversized shirt for work, a ribbed sweater and vintage-fit denim on weekends, or even the go-anywhere dress (just make sure to add a belt to keep it feeling youthful). If you’ve got your eyes on autumn, velvet and corduroy are the perfect match for next season’s preoccupation with texture. Don’t underestimate the quiet precision of a summer blazer—here’s Vogue’s edit of the best blazers to shop now.
